Do you think Nintendo NX will be successful?

??? no comment on that piece.
i for one DO want a dual machine, the concept is as old as jack the ripper, nothing new.
the wiiu is a nds on the big, why no card socket for retail cartridges is beyond me?! ???
still, no rush for this next one in the line, curious to see how it pans out. ;D
(backwards compatibility is always an issue, and unless addressed as usual for the most part, i'll take a back seat. good luck new customers, demand what you pay for, and DON'T bitch at the old cunts that adapted, and had no stake in it. :D )

I'm willing to bet that it isn't at all what anyone thinks it will be. Most everyone seems to think that it's just the next gen. You guys seriously think Nintendo is as short-sighted as the other guys?
The word "hybrid" seems to be key. My guess? Hybrid console-iOS/Android device. While Sony and Microsoft sit around with their heads up their asses, concerning themselves with how many useless non-gaming features they can shove into their next giant, oblique-esque box, Nintendo is likely thinking about current and future state of gaming. That most assuredly includes cellphone gaming, and they'd be really smart to capitalize on that by implementing some proprietary hardware, versus simply producing games for iOS/Droid. Not to mention that this would most certainly NOT replace or interfere with their current hardware lineup, which is something they've been insisting upon.

I'm hoping for powerful true gaming console with no idiotic gimmick that is forced on in every game whether they need it or not, even if playing said games with normal pad (Pro Controller) would be better.
Bring back NES/SNES/N64/NGC but with great power.
And I hope hybrid does not mean that they scale down the power of the console so it will run on portable device as well.

Oh and the pad should have power switch.
It's so annoying when I want to play Yoshi with Pro Controller and pad automatically turns on!!!!!!!!!!!!! >:(
